Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I’m a classic case … man in the early 60’s, recently retired, with kids already outside the nest, still feeling full of energy, planning to use the last span of life to enlarge horizons, experiences and perspectives. I have sailing in the last two years in my own boat and got contaminated by what the ocean’s soul gives me, space and freedom.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I was born and raised in Brazil, have lived for a long period in USA and Sweden. I have traveled a lot but now, I’m no longer seeking for postcards, I’m looking for a journey that will give the pleasure of facing the unknown, the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with people outside my regular word, witness the beauty of nature before it’s gone. I’m known for spirit of adventure, sense of humor, capacity to establish relationships and flexibility to adapt to uncomfortable/unknown scenarios. I’m comfortable with some period of silence while love a good conversation. Music and good food are also part of my passion.

My plan is to gain experience and establish my network of sailor in order to be ready to captain of my own boat.
